 I have nothing more to add to the code before 2.4.7.
 
 However, I'd like to point at a documentation bug that may impact this 
 release:
 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=652350
 
 Cristian Marchi, our currently most active documentation developer, has asked 
 to release the documentation together with the new release. There are many 
 changes in the documentation that never were released so far.
 
 I know the documentation release is independent of the program in principle, 
 but both the Windows and the OS X build include it by default. And all linux 
 distributions create a separate package for the documentation. In that view 
 it would indeed be good to release the documentation as well.
 
 I know how to tag a release, create a tarball and set up the new release on 
 our website. But I don't know or don't have permission for the other steps:
 - how to upload the tarball to Sourceforge ?
 - how about a news item ? Is there some template to reuse, or should we 
 create a new one ? Anyone volunteering ?

Are we waiting on something to do this release (or releases, if all the doc 
changes are in svn and ready for release)? 

Geert, you're an admin on the sourceforge project, so while you already have 
release and shell access to upload to frs, even if you didn't you could fix it 
yourself. 652350 seems to be about setting up a formal release process. We can 
do that, but I don't think that's a prerequisite for releasing 2.4.7. See the 
Sourceforge docs on how to use the files page (or just go to it; they've made 
using it pretty obvious.)

I've got some errands to run, but if no one objects and no one else has done 
so, I'll update the version numbers, tag the versions, and make dist this 
afternoon. (Three changes, right? Gnucash itself 2.4.7, Gnucash-Docs 2.2.2, and 
Gnucash-Docs 2.4.1?)

John Ralls

Docs build failure -- java failure building PDF?

Hi,

The docs build has been failing for a while.  I finally took the time to
play with it to find the error.  Maybe someone can help me debug this?

It shouldn't.  It comes from:

Note that I did recently upgrade the server from F10 to F15, so it COULD
be something from that.  HOWEVER I don't think so -- I think the failures
started after the upgrade.

 Your installation seems to have a problem with the avalon framework.

 What distro are you using, and how did you install fop ?

Fedora 15 (upgraded from F10)
It was installed via RPM from the upgrade (I dont recall where I got the
original installation).  The current version of fop:

fop-0.95-5.fc14.noarch

Ok, a quick search with google shows that fop is broken on F15.

fop-0.95 doesn't work with avalon-framework-4.3.3 [1]. Fop 1.x has been fixed 
in the meantime to work with avalon-framework, but it has another critical bug 
that prevents the creation of pdf files [2].

The only workaround for now is to downgrade avalon-framework back to 4.1.x and 
use fop 0.95.

computer to the new.  Could you please tell me how to do this?  I have

That's a user question and should be asked on Gnucash-users, not here.

You don't import Gnucash files into Gnucash, you just copy them over to the 
new computer and open them with FileOpen.

 Once the tags are in, I'll try to come up with a news article for the two

I've committed the version change to Gnucash itself and started making the tag. 
That turns out to be a lengthy process in Git-svn, it may take an hour or so.

The trunk documents are in kind of a strange state. They were tagged 5 months 
ago (when we released 2.4.0) as 2.4.0, but configure.in wasn't changed and 
nobody put a tarball up on Sourceforge. On the other hand, we have a docs/2.4 
directory in the website containing what appear to be 2.3.7 documents copyright 
2001-2007 Chris Lyttle -- who appears not to have committed anything since, but 
that might be because the appropriate page never got updated. I'll look into 
fixing that up so that Christian and Yawar get some credit.

But I wonder, since it seems we've never actually done a 2.4 documents release, 
should this be 2.4.0 (and I delete the existing 2.4.0 tag and make a new one) 
or should I not worry too much about 2.4.0 and just call this 2.4.1?

John Ralls

Thanks for the reference.  #2 says that upgrading to fop-1.0-16 fixes the
problem, so I ran:

yum --enablerepo=rawhide update fop

And now the build succeeds.  There is still a crash in there, but it
generates a PDF.  I haven't looked to see what the PDF looks like. 
Tonight's build will put it online.

Some of the warnings look like:

 for releasing 2.4.7. See the Sourceforge docs on how to use the files page
 (or just go to it; they've made using it pretty obvious.)
 
 I wasn't aware I had become an admin on our sourceforge page.  Indeed in 
 that 
 case I could make any changes necessary.
 
 I've got some errands to run, but if no one objects and no one else has
 done so, I'll update the version numbers, tag the versions, and make dist
 this afternoon. (Three changes, right? Gnucash itself 2.4.7, Gnucash-Docs
 2.2.2, and Gnucash-Docs 2.4.1?)
 
 Ok for me.
 
 Once the tags are in, I'll try to come up with a news article for the two 
 documentation releases, and put the documentation on our website.
 
 I've committed the version change to Gnucash itself and started making the 
 tag. That turns out to be a lengthy process in Git-svn, it may take an hour 
 or so.
 
 The trunk documents are in kind of a strange state. They were tagged 5 
 months ago (when we released 2.4.0) as 2.4.0, but configure.in wasn't 
 changed and nobody put a tarball up on Sourceforge. On the other hand, we 
 have a docs/2.4 directory in the website containing what appear to be 2.3.7 
 documents copyright 2001-2007 Chris Lyttle -- who appears not to have 
 committed anything since, but that might be because the appropriate page 
 never got updated. I'll look into fixing that up so that Christian and Yawar 
 get some credit.
 
 But I wonder, since it seems we've never actually done a 2.4 documents 
 release, should this be 2.4.0 (and I delete the existing 2.4.0 tag and make 
 a new one) or should I not worry too much about 2.4.0 and just call this 
 2.4.1?
 
 
 Sigh. I was premature in tagging gnucash-docs 2.2.2. Please don't do anything 
 with it until I fix it.

I'm rather talking to myself tonight. 

Everything is updated and tagged. I have tarballs ready for upload for all 
three packages. I haven't done anything yet with any news items, and I haven't 
changed anything on the website yet.

I've also started the 2.4.7 Mac builds.

Now it's bedtime.

Regards,
John Ralls
